What are you playing this week? January 01 2024 Edition

I'm super into Forza Horizon 5 again. One of my favorite racing games ever at this point. :)

BG3, on my first playthrough.

Grounded - let me know of any similar games like that and the Subnautica games!

Playing Shogun 2 Total War. Yes it's prety old but i like it.

I have the whole week off, playing Horizon Zero Dawn and loving it.

I completed Assassin's Creed Mirage last night so now I'm just cleaning up some of the easier to get trophies and then I'm going to play AC Valhalla until I get bored of the AC formula lmao

BG2. Spent 30hrs this past week just in chapter 2 alone. Its been a blast.

Finished Trepang². Fun shooter, similar mechanics to fear, but made by 4 guys. Story isnt that great, but shotgunning people in the head from 5cm while in slow-mo is still very much enjoyable.

I just finished Yakuza 6 and VA11-HALL-A. Continuing with BG3, also put a little time into Sea of Stars and LAD Gaiden.

Been having a blast (finally) working my way through Pathfinder: Kingmaker because apparently I take five years to get around to playing a CRPG. As a 3.5e sicko, I always liked the Pathfinder ruleset and the writing of this is shockingly good. Ended up being a little baby and turning off the failure state for the Kingdom but whatever.

Tangential: Does Rogue Trader still have the periodic text adventure bits? Love those in Kingmaker since they always come out of left field and really accentuate the joys of pnp where you have those bits that wouldn't be fun to play but really tie the whole encounter together.
